SMARC
SMARC stands for Smart Mobility Architecture and is a specification of the Standardization Group for Embedded Technologies e.V. (SGET) for Computer-on-Module (COM). The target market is compact low-power systems based on ARM and X86 technology.
- Two form factors
- Full Size Module: 82 x 80 mm
- Short Module 82 x 50 mm
- Offers space for a variety of interfaces thanks to 314 pins (MXM-3 Connector)
- Well suited for mobile, networked embedded solutions
- Allows 4 x Gigabit Ethernet and 4 x MIPI CSI – each twice as much as SMARC 2.0
- Designed for use in harsh, industrial environments
- SMARC modules are also suitable as scalable AIoM (AI on Module) solutions, making them a good alternative for the growing need for artificial intelligence in IoT scenarios
